I recently tackled Johnny Chung Lee's Wiimote Whiteboard project and I've documented the results on TeacherTube:
Getting Uwe Schmidt's Java port of the software to run on my Mac was very easy and I had no problems pairing the Wiimote with the laptop. I did have some trouble building the IR pointer, but that was mainly due to my general incompetence with a soldering iron.
The software isn't ready for the average classroom user yet, but at the very least it's a great proof-of-concept that an interactive whiteboard system can be built for a fraction of the cost of a SmartBoard.
